Three-cylinder capacitor
A capacitor consists of three concentric cylindrical shells with radii R, 2R, and 3R. The inner and outer shells are connected by a conducting wire, so they are at the same potential. The shells are initially neutral, and then some charge is transferred from the middle shell to the inner/outer shells.
a) If the final charge per unit length on the middle shell is λ, what are the charges per unit length on the inner and outer shells?
b) What is the capacitance per unit length of the system?
c) type or neat handwriting for the questions above ( I don't understand cursive a lot) I appreciate your understanding.
